“Pacific”

In Kohl’s hands, each tune is an expedition, and his patient painterly approach uncovers jewels… Throughout “Pacific” Kohl caresses these deeply ingrained melodies with uncommon eloquence and a kind of expressive abandon… It’s a musical journey that will reward listeners and have aspiring guitarists going back to the woodshed.
